I Saw a Poem in His Madness

Vi Un Poema En Su Locura

Gray Lima, our cityLima gris, nuestra ciudad
I had the mania, he had the anxietyYo manía, él ansiedad
He invited me to smokeMe invitó a fumar
Four twentyCuatro veinte

The driver speeding like crazyEl al volante a toda velocidad
Living on the edge is my weaknessVivir al borde es mi debilidad
I felt so fantasticMe sentí tan fantástica
And everything was perfectY todo era perfecto

Me in a red dress and my heart deadYo en vestido rojo y muerto el corazón
Bottle in hand, neon lightsBotella en mano, luces de neón
Two broken souls, me and my compassionDos almas rotas, yo y mi compasión
I'm a saviorSoy una salvadora

What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
It was so beautiful and fragileEra tan hermoso y frágil
That I felt I had to take care of himQue sentí que debía cuidarlo

What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
I saw a poem in his madnessVi un poema en su locura
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
If I'm a romanticSi soy una romántica

Six feet tall with good tasteMetro ochenta de buen sabor
My beautiful dreamer treated me so wellQué bien me daba mi hermoso soñador
I didn't care about the needlesNo me importaron las agujas
I didn't see the red flagsYo no vi las red flags

Me in a red dress and my heart deadYo en vestido rojo y muerto el corazón
Bottle in hand, neon lightsBotella en mano, luces de neón
Two broken souls, me and my compassionDos almas rotas, yo y mi compasión
I'm a saviorSoy una salvadora

What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
It was so beautiful and fragileEra tan hermoso y frágil
That I felt I had to take care of himQue sentí que debía cuidarlo

What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
I saw a poem in his madnessVi un poema en su locura
What was I supposed to do?¿Qué iba yo a hacer?
If I'm a romanticSi soy una romántica

It was so beautifulEra tan bello
